Course Overview

Professionals who work with young children often say that one of the hardest parts of their job is sharing sensitive information with parents about their child’s development. The Sharing Sensitive News e-seminar provides early childhood educators and other professionals with specific strategies for sharing information with parents in a way that emphasizes active listening and promotes positive collaboration. When we share the news in a way that is sensitive, family-centred and respectful of parents’ points of view, we greatly improve the chances for successful collaboration.


Course Objectives

Upon completion of this 2 hour e-seminar, participants will be able to:

  • Identify why information may be difficult for educators to share and difficult for parents to hear.
  • Plan ahead for how to effectively share information with parents.
  • Clearly share information in a way that actively involves parents in the discussion and is sensitive to their feelings and perspective.
